Participants at the judicial colloquium on the abolition of the death penalty, which was held here last month, recommended that the government formalise the de facto moratorium of the death penalty.
This was among the conclusions of the July 20th conference, which was facilitated by the United Nations, the International Commis-sion against the Death Penalty, the European Union Delegation to Guyana, and the Embassy of the Netherlands in Suriname.
